    KALIMERA Ruud, Good morning!
    I really like your self-portrait on the way to the Acropolis,
    (so I added one "atop" the Acropolis! )It is a great group.

    Need to ask you: why did ning put up that annoucement:
    "Give.........a gift"?
    I went to details, and the "credits" mean that we will have to pay!
    Can we get this "commercial" erased from our pages please!
    Many thanks,
    Katerina in Greece
  • Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat)

    AACK! and there is another note at the bottom of each "comment" window:
    "Attach a gift to this comment"!
    Not good...not good at all :-(
  • Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat)

    Thank you, ruud, the "gift" message is gone. It was misleading for those here who don't know English very well. They would have thought it just fun to give gifts...only to discover to pay!
    Well, ning can have some types of ads maybe on the main page or something on the side edges for those interested, I understand that they want to advertise if they give the site free.
    Thank you for clearing the "gift" mesage!

    hallo Ruud You ave mmi Mailart Recevied?
  • Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat)

    Fast mailing, Ruud! Thank you so much1
    Now I finally have a membership card. That's great!
    And, of course, I am sending you some rubber stamp images,
    in the mail tomorrow morning. You asked for an address stamp, unfortunately I have only one...in GREEK! But now I know what I have to work on: rubberstamp designs in ENGLISH!
    Thanks for your mailing, it doesn't matter how long it takes,
    I understand how busy you are with all the mail art matters.
    Tis a great surprise, though, to have something from you in
    my mailbox!
    Many thanks,
    Katerina

    Thanks for the OOLA - I'll be putting this up on my REAL wall shortly before sending it on to the bullies council
  • Alison Noble

    Ruud, thanks for including my ugly mail art call on the blog site. Unfortunately the zip is incorrect. Could you change it to 87105? I did change it on the MA projects page. Thanks, Alison
  • Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat)

    Thank you for sending me your mail art...my mail box will be happy when it arrives...me, too!

    Hello ruud,
    I am having strange problems with IUOMA this evening.
    The last comments by others were send "to your profile"
    and not "to your page"! Maybe I hit something and comments
    are overloading my "profile"? how could that be?

    Also, I can not upload photos easily.
    It keeps telling me that there is an "error on the page".
    Well, I will go off line for a while...maybe it is my internet server?

    Hope it can be fixed.

    Thanks for all of the "stuff" I have one of yours from 2003 but most of my mailart goes to 1994 and I love every crazy, wonderful piece of it. Will come up with something to send in a plain envelope.

    Hallo Ruud,
    eigentlich wollte ich auf Deinen Kommentar in meinem Blog reagieren, kann dort aber gerade wegen technischer Probleme keinen Kommentar veröffentlichen, deshalb nun auf diesem Weg.
    Auch für mich wären die Niederlande der WM-Final-Wunschgegner, allerdings müssen wir vorher Uruguay und Spanien nach Hause schicken. Viel Glück dafür – wünscht Wolfgang.

    Hi Ruud! Please look at the message that Rose Grandson has posted about a hotel in Canada. Is this what IUOMA is supposed to be about -- filling jobs in hotels? If it is I'm very surpprised Regards, Val

    I agree Val, what a cheek! Jobs in hotels indeed - we have far better things to do like make Mail Art!

    Ruud, my friend Ruth Dellinger (an IUOMA member) sent me this email--she's concerned this guy is a scammer and it looks that way to me, too.

    Do you get these things too?  I have not replied because I fear it is the next scam....

    Sent from RED's iPad, that sometimes makes up words!

    Hi....could you let me know how to add another admin to the ATC Rebel Buddy Jam discussion on the Rebel ATC group page....and delete me...

    thanks *!*

  • Toni Hanner -- tonipoet

    Ruud, what is the etiquette about posting photos of art received from non-IUOMA members. I have received some beautiful art from Emilio Carrasco  but unless he goes by a different name I can't find him on the site. Is it OK to post his work anyway?

  • Terry Reid

    Ruud,  have by email sent 2 'paragraph' to you re: Richard C; no acknowledgement from you, leaving me with some concern that they have perhaps not gotten to you (were sent to <r.janssen@iuoma.org>).  In either case, would appreciate knowing.  Best contact via not.terryreid@hotmail.com

  • Terry Reid

    That should have read, "2 'paragraphs'", sent in 2 emails.

    I don't know if you've already created a list or other way so that we can be notified whenever a new group is created but I would like to have that.

    Hi Ruud, you were right. It was my provider, Virgin Media. I solved my problems by connecting phone to PC and using its mobile data.Thank you.
